First Day of School

Caleb had his first day of 'real school' this week. He was so excited to go. He is in AM KINDERGARTEN and his teacher is MRS. LYNCH. He rode the bus for the first time today...and of course I came home and cried. They just grow up so fast...and all I could think about was my sweet baby is going to be around all the "evil" of the world...I hope I have taught him well...and I kept seeing him look back at me scared as he boarded the bus like "what do I do?". I am just grateful he goes half day & not full day....but then he comes home in the afternoon & fights with Carter & I can't wait for morning to come. Oh the craziness, but I love it....here are a few pics:

Don't leave me brother!

Brody wanting to go with Caleb, only 3 more years Brods...but who is counting??? lol

Brinkley's Blessing Day

This past Sunday we BLESSED Brinkley. Layne gave her a beautiful blessing...and she was so good, she didn't even make a peep. He blessed her to have a sense of humor and to have a strong bond with her mother.
We had everyone over for dinner afterwards.


All in all, it was a fun time!
